Xia Ningxi lay in a pool of blood after a difficult labor from her two-year marriage, completely forgetting that it was the day of his wedding to someone else.
Huo Nanxiao said, "Leave th...
Chapter 682 Coming for Her
That evening, Lin Jiangbei and the hospital reached an agreement: they decided to perform surgery on Lin Jiangbei, with Xia Ningxi as the chief surgeon.
Knowing that Xia Ningxi had sustained minor injuries while saving someone last time, they postponed the surgery for three days later.
At first, Tang En didn't want to pay any more attention to them because their doubts about Xia Ningxi's skills angered him.
However, Tang En was not a heartless person. After learning about Lin Jiangbei's illness, he could not stand idly by. So he agreed to Ling Shuang's request and prepared a waiver of liability for Lin Jiangbei to sign.
Tang En said, "Miss Ling, I must warn you in advance that this surgery is very risky no matter who performs it, and the probability of death is very high. If Lin Jiangbei dies due to a failed surgery, you cannot hold Dr. Xia responsible."
"I know, don't worry, since I've already signed, there's no way I can go back on my word," Ling Shuang assured her.
Don said, "We will not allow anyone to disturb us during the treatment of patients, nor will we allow outsiders to give us unsolicited advice. We will also not listen to the instructions of the expert team you brought. We will handle all matters, and all treatments must be carried out according to my arrangements."
"Can't the expert team I brought even interfere?" Ling Shuang hesitated.
Don said, "No. Since you've chosen me, you should trust my abilities and the abilities of our entire team. Rest assured, we are all experienced experts who want their patients to recover more than anyone else."
“Okay, I promise you.” Ling Shuang nodded.
Tang En felt relieved. He wasn't afraid of Ling Shuang causing trouble for him, but he was afraid that they would cause trouble for Xia Ningxi.
Actually, Tang En didn't really want Xia Ningxi to participate in this surgery, but because of what he had said before, he couldn't just remove Xia Ningxi from the surgical team list at the last minute.
Moreover, when Ling Shuang decided to have Xia Ningxi perform the surgery, she had already sent several large bags of gifts to Xia Ningxi's clinic, which included three thick stacks of cash as well as several luxury handbags.
To be honest, this was the first time Xia Ningxi had received so many gifts, especially since they were given to her in front of everyone.
Of course, the rest of the team members were also involved, besides her.
The hospital director was quite angry when he found out about this, thinking that Ling Shuang was ruining the hospital's reputation. But then he thought that Tang En and the others weren't from his hospital, so even if the director wanted to do something, he couldn't. In the end, he could only pretend that he knew nothing.
As for the other colleagues at the hospital, they all heard about this. Ling Shuang was very generous, and the designer bags and watches she gave away were all worth a lot, all of them no less than six figures.
Many people can't afford such expensive luxury items even after working for a year, but Ling Shuang can buy them like they're wholesale. How can people not be envious?
but……
These luxury items were quickly returned; they didn't want any of them!
This surprised Ling Shuang, but along with the surprise came a sense of relief.
After Xia Ningxi took all of Lin Jiangbei's data, she had an in-depth discussion with the team, which ended in the early hours of the morning.
She thought Huo Nanxiao had left long ago, but to her surprise, he was still there when she came out of the conference room.
He handed a cup of hot soy milk and a snack to Xia Ningxi.
"Why are you still here?" Xia Ningxi asked, puzzled.
Huo Nanxiao said, "I just passed by."
"At this hour, how could you possibly pass by? If you were just passing by, why would you end up in the hospital?" Xia Ningxi questioned.
Huo Nanxiao: "The children were clamoring to see you, and I was afraid they would get hungry waiting until midnight, so I bought some food and came to pick you up."
Xia Ningxi opened the package containing the late-night snack. It was clearly only enough for one person, with no portion for the child. Huo Nanxiao was lying to her.
Xia Ningxi didn't bother to ask why Huo Nanxiao would lie to her. He certainly wasn't waiting until now because he was worried about her. Maybe he met some beautiful woman and picked her up on the way home after their rendezvous. Huo Xiuyuan would probably praise Huo Nanxiao if he saw it.
Xia Ningxi took a sip of soy milk; it was still warm and had no sugar added, which she quite liked.
"Let's go back, I'm tired," Xia Ningxi said.
Huo Nanxiao did not answer, but had already walked towards the elevator.
The car was parked downstairs, and there was no driver, so Huo Nanxiao was driving.
Huo Nanxiao asked, "Lin Jiangbei is my business partner's younger brother, and he is Ling Shuang's younger brother. If something goes wrong during this surgery, the Ling family will be very difficult to deal with."
"I know that Tang En has already made them sign a waiver of liability. As long as there is no medical malpractice, they won't blame us," Xia Ningxi said confidently.
Sometimes, it's true that patients are the weaker party, but more often than not, doctors are also the weaker party.
Many people regard them as gods, but they are just simple people, gods who desperately fight against death to save lives...
Their abilities are far from that great; all their efforts come from their knowledge and a kind heart.
They can actually cure all the patients? That's impossible!
Xia Ningxi finished the whole cup of soy milk, put it in the bag, and started eating the other small bread rolls. She was really starving and had been eating all the way.
Huo Nanxiao saw all her efforts and felt a strange, indescribable feeling in his heart.
He knew that Xia Ningxi was more attractive when she was working than ever; she was an exceptionally good doctor.
Even if she leaves home, she can still shine in her career through hard work.
She is indeed very different from Xia Wanwan.
"Watch where you're going!" Xia Ningxi noticed that Huo Nanxiao was staring at her and kindly reminded him.
But it was too late!
Huo Nanxiao didn't notice the large truck driving past in front of him. He subconsciously turned the steering wheel, and the car suddenly jolted, rushing towards the flower bed on the left.
Bang--
With a loud bang, the car came to a stop.
Xia Ningxi was thrown out and then pulled back by the seatbelt. Her head was buzzing and her mind was blank.
Huo Nanxiao remained calm. "The car malfunctioned. Are you alright?"
"I...I'm fine." Xia Ningxi forced herself to remain calm as she unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car.
Huo Nanxiao also called the police immediately.
Neither of them was injured, but the car was totaled, with half of it stuck in the flowerbed, which looked quite comical.
When Ye Su arrived, the police hadn't arrived yet. She asked worriedly, "President, Madam, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Xia Ningxi shook her head.
Huo Nanxiao then instructed her, "Take care of this matter, give me your car keys, and I'll take her home first."
Ye Su was very worried: "President, you should go to the hospital for a check-up first, and also have the young mistress checked to see if she is injured anywhere."
Huo Nanxiao didn't want to waste time going to the hospital, but considering that Xia Ningxi's health was more precious, he accepted the suggestion.
